Alexander The Great

So much wanted to listen to this book but could not tolerate the singing voice of the narrator

Boring narrator. Couldn't listen for more than 5 minutes.

Alexander the Great is a fascinating subject. This book does not do him justice, in my mind, because no dates are provided to clarify the period of his short reign. The narrator is adequate but not outstanding. This said, it is worthy read. I came away knowing more than when I started.

Narrator's sing-song voice was distracting and annoying. Book is worth listening to, however.

Book is very good but the narration is absolutely not good at all I don't know who is this person but not good at all I hope she didn't do it anymore

Interesting and well written but the narrator was terrible. Could not even finnish the book

I’ve never read or listen to the story of Anthony the great so I thoroughly enjoyed it and I enjoyed the narrator also. She has a gift of reading it in such a way that I felt like I was there. Period it’s like I could see the blood in the gore with my own eyes And the shame and the dismay on the faces of his officers. The narrator has a gift and I hope that this is not the only title that she has read.

The readers’ upward tone at the end of nearly each phrase or sentence is extremely distracting. Sorry, but that may very well be the manner in which her speech was acquired. As a native of the USA, I could only listen to this type of speaking for a handful of minutes.

I was looking forward to reading this book but couldn’t tolerate the narrator

Give it up Lizzie. You have no idea what you are saying

The book would have been a great read but I couldn’t stand the awful narration

To tell the history of a Hellenic the writer must be a Hellenic , I don’t use the word Greek that was purely an Italian invention to create their virus on of history while we were fighting for our freedom against the Ottoman Empire . A Hellenic is different especially to other people’s mentally and an Anglo can’t really make accurate opinions of what is transpiring in the Hellenic mind so explaining what Alexander thought and felt thousands of years later should not have been part of a historical story

loved it. presentation was clear and engaging

Book was an interesting read and I liked being able to listen and access various historical maps to follow Alexander’s travels and engagements. Unfortunately, the narration was very distracting and there were more than just a few times when I was ready to stop listening and find another biography on him. Driver’s voice was clear, but she obviously likes to ignore the rules of punctuation. I would avoid her whenever there’s an alternative.

Good book but the narrator keeps pausing and made me lose interest very quick
